iwork part time at my friends dads shop, i get commercial discounts through him at Advance Auto so its at 54 there so probably 40 all said and done.

All the more reason to drop the rack and give it a good overhaulin!

lol, rarely do i get to work on my car in the shop. i have to settle for my dads garage, but your motivating me to clean it up real well. the front sub frame is absolutely disgusting.

A clean car goes faster.:3gears:

if it wasn't winter i would roll it outside and power wash under it and make that dirt/oil crap :gtfo:

I bought some carb cleaner, brillo pad, wire wheel, and carb cleaner today so i could be just like you.

Winning! BTW, Menards has some cheapo brake cleaner on sale for a little over a buck a can. The stuff is invaluable for degreasing and paint prep.

Awesome, I just checked my amazon cart and I hadn't picked any carb cleaner. I'll have to go pick up a couple cans. Thanks for the tip.

Just cant spray or drip on anything you don't want to repaint this ---- works good not as harmful to paint if you dilute it a bit. http://www.superkleendirect.com/cast...per-clean.aspx
